"TURNING TEENAGERS INTO FULLY COMMITTED FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST."
The “turning teenagers” part of our mission statement is about evangelism. We are passionate about proclaiming the Gospel. The “into fully committed followers of Jesus Christ” part of our mission statement is about discipleship. From the moment a teenager surrenders their life to Christ, we are committed to help them grow in their relationship with Jesus.

Extra research note
-
After research and evaluation, I do not believe this group is a good candidate for further research. While they are likely open for visits, a close location, and nonviolent, they do not seem oppositional enough to fit our research needs, and they are likely far too large of a group.
